 <php>echo "<b><font color=\"#FFC671\">Battle Orders (Ex):</font></b>";</php> The warlord’s commanding words exert an effect on allies in his vicinity. He can learn to produce different effects, or battle orders, over the course of his career. The warlord may have only one battle order active at a time. Activating a battle order is a swift action. The battle order remains in effect until the warlord uses a free action to dismiss it or activates another battle order. A warlord can have a battle order active continually; thus, an order can be in effect at the start of a combat encounter even before the warlord takes his first turn. Issuing a battle order involves haranguing, ordering, directing, encouraging, cajoling, or calming allies. A warlord sizes up the enemy, allies, and the terrain, then gives allies the direction that they can use to do their best. Unless otherwise noted, a warlord’s battle orders affect all allies within 60 feet (including himself) who can hear the warlord. An ally must have an Intelligence score of 3 or higher and be able to understand the warlord’s language to gain the bonus. A warlord’s battle order is dismissed if he is dazed, unconscious, stunned, paralyzed, or otherwise unable to be heard or understood by his allies.A warlord begins play knowing one battle order of his choice. As his warlord level increases, he gains access to new battle orders, as indicated on the table above. A battle order grants a +1 bonus to a specific roll, check, or defense. This bonus improves by an additional +1 at 5th level and every four levels thereafter. All bonuses granted by a warlord’s battle orders are circumstance bonuses that stack with each other, but not with circumstance bonuses granted from other abilities and effects. The available battle orders are listed below: <php>echo "<b><font color=\"#FFC671\">Battle Orders (Ex):</font></b>";</php> The warlord’s commanding words exert an effect on allies in his vicinity.
